I had the same problem and I couldn’t open the doors because my is not the same for the doors, so I tried the step where he pressed the lock and unlocked botton of the key remote at the same time and it worked.
Thank you for posting this. I just bought a 2001 GMC Sierra that had no active fobs, but the prior owner had purchased a few that weren't yet paired to the truck and that he included with it. Your video will save me having to cough up for a dealer to waste my time and do the same thing.
Oh my goodness, thank you for having this online. I'm an old broad trying to figure out all this stuff on my own. The keyfob to my 2003 Silverado quit working and still wouldn't work after putting in a new battery. The one in your video looks EXACTLY like mine. Took me a couple of tries, but it works. I can't thank you enough.
Thank you! I needed this! Thought my fob broke so bought a replacement and couldnt get it to work. Couldnt find how to reprogram. Thanks to this video I googled one last time how to reprogram for my vehicle and was able to find the instructions.
This fixed my problem after replacing the battery and nothing happening....Thank you so much saved me a boatload of buying another fob and getting the dealer to reprogram it
Thought mine was broke also. It would lock but not unlock. Pull fob apart to remove rubber buttons from circuit board. With cleaner or pencil eraser clean contacts. My batt. checked good at 3 V. Works perfect now at good distance. Also programmed fob from another '04, Z71, Burb as shown and now I have 2 fobs working. Excellent video Thanks.
Just to let you know you don't have to remove the ring holding your key fob on in order to open up the key fob to replace the battery. Just open it up normally and the two pieces will stay on the ring together. Also you only turn your key on and off two times not three times.
Daninator cheers mate, I have repeatedly tried using the method described for the Mazda car key fob reprogramming and have always failed to reprogram my key fob since replacing the battery. In just one look at your video I really quickly got my key fob to work as it should. 😀 Awesome content man and since my dad's name is Dan and he always had great advice for me I feel it is a great coincidence your video was fated to help me out. Have a great day 😎
@@TheDaninator nah battery is fresh, turns out that as I removed the key from ignition the little button you press to remove key was staying pressed, and when the key is ignition fob is disabled. I lubed the lock mechanism and now all is working well, the little button pops open everytime I remove key now.
Hello. I am trying to program a brand new replacement key fob for my 2001 Chevy Tahoe. As mentioned the key fob is brand new, with brand new working batteries. I have followed/repeated the entire insert key, hold down unlock button, turn ignition off/on twice, wait for the lock to cycle, press and hold lock/unlock on fob simultaneously. But the lock never cycles therefore the Tahoe never enters programming mode. As a side note, I know that the locks are capable of cycling. Because when I pull and hold the bright light lever while cycling the key twice to program my desired door lock/unlock sequence the locks will actually cycle, the same way that they should when programming the key fobs. Can you please share some troubleshooting steps that might help me diagnose why my Tahoe won't enter programming mode so that I can program my new key fobs? Thank you.
@@Allwaystravel22 negative. I'm worrying that the key fobs I ordered aren't actually broadcasting a signal. They have power(I used my multimeter on the button battery) but the vehicle is still unresponsive. I've been trying to find a key fob tester kiosk at autozone but the last 2 locations I went to didn't have one there anymore. Usually there for the key fob battery display.
@@nolimitnetworkrc7271 same.. so I dunno if my truck is actually in programming mode.. I've searched and searched online for some tips but I've found nothing..
My question is how to tell if the key fobs have been invalidated and need to be reprogrammed, if the battery hasn't been replaced or gone dead? The truck's battery had no problem two days ago.
I really need your help! I have the fobs that you have and i do exectly as you do in your video. I come in to the program mode, let go the unlock buttom and press bouth fob buttoms on my key. I can hold them down for minutes without anything happend. My fob did'nt work before either. Whats the problem?
Is the truck a 2007 or newer? This process works for the pre-2007 models. If not, be sure the battery is good in the fob. Otherwise, I can't think of anything other than possibly the circuitry in the fob is bad. Hope you're able to get it working soon.
@@TheDaninator my truck is a silverado 2006. I have changed the battery to brand new 2032s'. I have cleaned out the circuitry and it's look fine for me 🤔
After you press and hold unlock and lock on the first key fob you simply grab the next key fob and press and hold unlock and lock until it does its thing again
@@missoli100 , it is what it is. It cost me over $400 to replace the fobs and install new Python system. The fobs I had were obsolete and they didn't service it. I really like the remote start feature. I like to car camp and it's nice to be able to take the chill off without leaving my comfy bed in back.
So, I did this and successfully got the vehicle into program mode and paired my new key fob the car received the signal and locked/unlocked to doors (recived key fob signal) but if i try to use the fob after programming, nothing happens
Sameee. After I get it in program mode, if I keep the door closed it keeps cycling but as soon as I open the door it stops working. It’s pissing me off
I replaced my battery and when I try locking or unlocking my truck, the lights outside flash like it did but it doesn’t. And when I sit inside to try it all I hear is small clicking sounds. But does not lock nor unlock.
OK so when I try this method it doesn't go into learn mode.. I even tried using the snap-on scanner, sit there and hold the buttons and it never registers. And ideas that could help?
My locks pop up-and-down with the testing phase and horn beeps but it will not go further where it works? I wish I can get help I'm on disability and I can't afford to replace ithe replace it or get go to a shop??
What if it worked before but you got another vehicle with a key fob and you get confused with both .. and now the 1st vehicle key fob not working and I can’t get into vehicle because it was broken into and they messed up my key hole so now the only way to get in is by breaking a window but I don’t want to do that is there a way to reset fob with out breaking a window lol thanks
I try to do program key fog on my 2002 Chevy Silverado but didn’t work when I hold the unlock button and turn of and on twice my door doesn’t lock and unlock by that I can’t program my new key fog to my truck does anyone know what would the problem be
Can someone please help me? I have a 08 chevy silverado and my relearn remote will not activate so i can link fobs to it. What can i do? Even tried this method and nothing
Key fob works perfectly now! Super simple fix!
Q can you use the passenger unlock button to program a key fob not the driver side
My key fob unlock and lock button don’t work just my alarm button .what could be the problem sir?

Daninator, work perfectly on my 01 Silverado. Thank you! 💯
Works great. Only difference for my 2005 Silverado was I only had to turn the key on / off 2x...
great clip but while fob is open take apart and wipe down contact points with alcohol wipes it helps alot also.
Thanks. I hope this will solve my problem of the fob portion not cycling.
Amazing! Got it on the third try for one of the fobs. Appreciate you!

If you have the driver information center (dic) you can enable or disable that option.

Does this work on a 97 Silverado
I have replaced batteries on mine and still nothing. Could it be something with the trucks computer?
My fab kills the battery very fast, I have to change the battery every 10 days, what do you think the reason behind it? Thanks
There must be a parasitic draw on the battery somewhere in the electronics.
I would suggest dry cleaning inside the fob electronic spray. I got a fob with signs of water beer or soda driedup inside the fob.
If this needs to be done can this cause your car/truck to not turn over?
So what do I do if the truck is locked and the manual key will not unlock the door either? I have no way to get into my truck
My locks pop up-and-down with the testing phase and horn beeps but it will not go further where it works? I wish I can get help I'm on disability and I can't afford to replace ithe replace it or get go to a shop??
Truck responded to reprogramming but the buttons won't do anything still
So how do I recalibrate it, if reprogramming it doesn’t work. I have 2 key fobs, both with full batteries. One programs, one doesn’t.
My truck honks every time I try and enter programming mode. Is that normal?

Will this work on any car ?
